Book Synopsis The Insomnia Poems by : Grace Nichols
Download or read book The Insomnia Poems written by Grace Nichols and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her latest collection, The Insomnia Poems, Grace Nichols explores those nocturnal hours when Sleep (the thief who nightly steals your brain) is hard to come by, and the politics of the day hard to shut out, never mind the lavender-scented pillow. Here memories of her own Guyana childhood mingle with the sleeping spectres of dreams and folk legends such as Sleeping Beauty. A lyrical interweaving of tones and textures invites the reader into the zones between sleep and no-sleep, between the solitude of the dark and the awakening of the light. The Insomnia Poems is Grace Nichols's first new collection since Picasso, I Want My Face Back (2009). Neither that collection nor this one is included in her Bloodaxe retrospective, I Have Crossed an Ocean (2010).
Download or read book Insomnia: Poems written by Linda Pastan and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2015-10-26 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Incandescent poems about living and aging—about being awake in this young century—by one of our most moving and eloquent poets. These poems chart the journeys of sleepless nights when whole lifetimes seem to pass with their stories: loves lost and gained; children and seasons in their phases; and the world beyond, both threatening and enriching life. The time before sleep acts as an invitation to reflect on the world's quieter movements—from gardens heavy after a first storm to the moon slipping into darkness in an eclipse—as well as on the subtle but relentless passage of time. Insomnia embodies Linda Pastan's graceful and iconic voice, both lucid and haunting.

Download or read book Insomnia Poems written by Emma Hope and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-08-25 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emma Hope, is a bestselling poet and campaigner. She offers an interesting selection of poems on the theme of insomnia in her latest collection of poetry: 'Insomnia Poems: Can't Sleep? Count Sheep...' So many suffer in silence from this affliction, and her anthology offers sympathy and compassion as it runs through the various thoughts that insomniacs may have. Using imagery that illuminates the subject, Emma tries to bring to attention a subject area that people have a shared understanding of, yet which is not commonly discussed openly. The sense of ennui that insomniacs may suffer from addressed by this collection of poetry, which has been written as a tonic for insomniacs to read while trying to get to sleep. Emma Hope has also written 'Christmas with M.E. and Fibro', which was a number 1 bestseller in the Kindle women's poetry section, as was her anthology ' You Can't See M.E. or Fibro.' Emma feels passionately that poetry can be used as a way of assisting those with illnesses both in reading it, and writing it themselves. Emma Hope's verses are written to challenge stereotypes, and her post-modern approach offers a mixture of traditional and contemporary themes and also styles. Insomnia is a theme that many of her friends share, and she feels that it is an important subject to those in pain, but also those who lead busy stressful lives. She hopes that her poetry may bring solace to some sufferers, who may in turn be encouraged to write their own poetry. Poetry and empowerment are importantly linked, and Emma uses poetry as a way of trying to assist people in dealing with the psychological effects of insomnia, in this anthology. Purchasing this anthology means that 100% of the proceeds go to a charity that empowers young people in Africa.

Book excerpt: Insomnia is a collection of poetry by author Michelle C. Hillstrom.It is at night when we lay in the dark, waiting to fall asleep, that our thoughts can drift off and begin thinking about the things we try to push away in the light of day.The dark thoughts and feelings. The experiences we don't want to remember. The dark begets dark.Is Insomnia to blame for the thoughts that creep in at night or is the Insomnia a side effect of a dark mind?The poems within this anthology are late night insomniatic musings covering topics of relationships, love, pain, creativity, the Marine Corps, and life.Sexual assault, depression, and suicide are also frequent topics. Because of this we wish to inform possible readers to proceed with caution. Michelle C. Hillstrom believes that these are timely topics that unfortunately too many people, including herself, have been touched by. Michelle C. Hillstrom wrote these poems spanning a time period of seventeen years. Many were written in the middle of the night when her brain refused to quiet down and allow her to sleep -- thus the inspiration for the title.We hope you enjoy: Insomnia.

Download or read book Insomnia: Poems written by John Kinsella and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vivid and urgent collection that addresses the contemporary crises—environmental, philosophical, and artistic—that keep us up at night. In this forceful call to action, acclaimed poet John Kinsella explores deeply felt and ever more insistent ecological concerns in his signature lyrical and experimental activist poetry. Here Kinsella turns his restless, unblinking gaze to a world where art, music, and philosophy—the highest creations of the human imagination and empathy—suddenly find themselves in a time and place that not only deny their importance, but can seem to have no use for them at all. In answer, Insomnia offers poems of self-accusation and angry protest, meditations on the nature of loss and trauma, and full-throated celebrations of the natural world. Kinsella attempts to find a still point from which we might reconfigure our perspective and examine the paradoxes of our contemporary experience. Ranging sleeplessly from Jam Tree Gully, Western Australia, to the coast of West Cork, Ireland, and haunted by historical and literary figures from Dante to Emily Brontë, Insomnia may be Kinsella’s most varied, concentrated, and powerful collection to date.

Book Synopsis The Master of Insomnia by : Boris A. Novak
Download or read book The Master of Insomnia written by Boris A. Novak and published by Deep Vellum Publishing. This book was released on 2012-09-18 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collision between contemporary poetics and the Renaissance lyric, between aestheticism and political engagement, The Master of Insomnia is a collection of Slovenian poet Boris A. Novak's verse from the last fifteen years, including numerous poems never before available in English. In these sensitive translations, Novak stands revealed as both innovator and observer; as critic Aleš Debeljak has written: "The poet's power in bearing witness to Sarajevo and Dalmatia, to his childhood room and his retired father, to the indifferent passage of time and the desperate pain of loss, confirms the melancholy clairvoyance of Walter Benjamin, who stated that what is essential hides in the marginal, negligent, and hardly observed details. Whoever strives to see the "big picture" will inevitably overlook the essential . . . [Novak's] wide-open eyes must watch over both the beauty of this life and the horror of its destruction."

Download or read book Insomnia written by John Kinsella and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2019-02-21 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Australian poet John Kinsella’s vivid and urgent new collection addresses the crisis of being that currently afflicts us: Kinsella addresses a situation where the creations of the human imagination, the very means by which we extend our empathies into the world – art, music and philosophy – suddenly find themselves in a world that not only denies their importance, but can sometimes seem to have no use for them at all. In an attempt to find a still point from which we might reconfigure our perspective and address the paradoxes of our contemporary experience, Kinsella has written poems of self-accusation and angry protest, meditations on the nature of loss and trauma, and full-throated celebrations of the natural world. Ranging from Jam Tree Gully, Western Australia to the coast of West Cork, Ireland, haunted by historical and literary figures from Dante to Emily Brontë (whom Kinsella has obsessed over since he was a child, and who intervenes in the poet’s attempts to come to grips with ideas of colonization and identity), Insomnia may be Kinsella’s most various and powerful collection to date.
